I previously thought that the key difference between "Save As" and "Export" is
whether the document that you are working on will continue to be open after
saving in the other format. However your insightful comment has changed my view
on this. Though I would still like this behaviour.

I regularly have to make copies of my documents available to others in say MS
Word format, since they don't have ooo. However on doing a "save as" I end up
being in the Word document rather than the OpenDocument that I was originally
working on, and still want to be working on.

Considering what you have just noted:
It might be better to add the option named "Save a copy as". This would allow
you to continue working in the current document after saving to another
file/format, whilst keeping the difference between whether a file will be able
to be opened by ooo again.

As far as I'm aware, this has not been submitted to the user experience group.

"we" is anyone who is interested/irritated in the issue. (I have lost some
editing that I have done through getting confused with this issue, which is why
I think it is important enough to work on.)
